When you were inside me, I knew you were mine. Now, I\u2019m not so sure. Cradled in my arms, you are an assemblage of parts I recognize: Noah\u2019s cleft chin and narrow ears, my heart-shaped lips and upturned nose. But your eyes are something else.\xa0I angle you this way and that, your milk-drunk mouth smearing saliva across my hospital gown while I search your slumbering face for the pull of attachment, waiting for the surge of affection. | Copyright 2022 by R.L.
